Mountain Horse Sportive High Rider
Review of Mountain Horse Sportive High Rider by
sweetpea_sweetpea
Advantages: Comfortable & Durable
Disadvantages: None
...I have been wearing Mountain Horse boots for years now including the ever popular 'Cheetah' boot.
I have always ridden in a pair of long leather boots and normally the zips have either gone on them or the stitching which is quite frankly damn annoying!
When I bought another horse about 2 years ago I decided to treat myself to a new pair of long leather boots but something which is a bit more durable and hardwearing. I dont know why I never thought of Mountain Horse before! It might be because alot of their boots are quite chunky.
Anyway Mountain Horse hadnt had the Sportive High Rider out for long and I had a look and went into my local saddlers to try them to see what they were like, I was smitten. They were so comortable and fitted really well, I have slim legs and normally I get a gap at the back of the boot but not with these...

Mountain Hardwear Trango 3.1
Review of Mountain Hardwear Trango 3.1 Tent by
mas1973
Advantages: Reasonably light, quick to erect, roomy, four season.
Disadvantages: None
...An outstanding tent for all weathers. We have not yet used it to its full potential. Myself, husband and daughter regularly travel with this tent. We backpack and find it light and easy to transport in our rucksacks. It can be erected within minutes, is extremely stable with the added bonus of no guy ropes! Waterproof and capable of seeing out the worst rain storms. Comfortably roomy with sufficient storage space for rucksacks at the rear. Good sized front vestibule with good ventilation suitable for cooking in when the weather is bad. Too many inside pockets to count! Very good ventilation. Excellent after care service received from Mountain Hardwear after one minor problem of ink on label running when it was packed away wet and staining inner tent. Mountain Hardwear were extremely helpful and replaced the inner tent within...

BUFFALO Special 6 Mountain Shirt-Peak performance!
Review of Buffalo Special 6 Shirt by
Neviscat
Advantages: Comfortable, warm, large pockets
Disadvantages: Bulky
...HOW I KNOW BUFFALO:
I have been a qualified mountaineering instructor in the military for 15 years and have seen many new 'concepts' for mountain shirts come and go. However, you'll not beat the BUFFALO© mountain shirt. Buffalo make a range of mountaineering clothing/gear for men and women that is warm, comfortable, practical and, dare I say, stylish! Their gear is suitable for a variety of outdoor pursuits, such as winter mountaineering, climbing, hill walking, mountain biking etc. I have also worn mine whilst canadian canoeing, snowboarding, sailing, kite flying and shopping in Edinburgh! All their products are designed to perform in extreme weather conditions Eg. temperatures less than 1°C, strong winds, driving rain, you know the score, but still perform well in milder conditions.
BACKGROUND:
Buffalo originally developed...
